Excuse me, spotted owls.

There was a report back in '93 that in Oregon, the spotted owl was more 
prosperous in second growth forests due to the fact that the increased 
undergrowth caused by more sunlight allowed for more of their prey
 to thrive (field mice and others I guess).  I guess they will need 
another reason to run the loggin industry out of business.
